I recommend Home Goods overall but NOT the Algonquin location. It is always a mess and makes for an unpleasant shopping experience.

It's a mess. The staff can't keep up with the customers rifling thru everything so it's all over the place

12/16/24 Tis' the Season for some Holiday ATTITUDE. UGH. So, yeah it's Christmastime and I'm sure working retail is a real b. But hey, if you hate your life (and clearly you do), how about you find a different place of employment because pissing in my holiday Cheerios after dropping over $600 is some big bs. The "manager" on tonight was next level RUDE-both over the loud speaker as she patronizingly announced the store closing and as she ushered me out the door. She couldn't bother to even look at me as she held the door open, let alone say thank you for shopping (and dropping over $600). I seriously hope the corporate office reads this and handles her because not only is she unprofessional, she hasn't a clue what Customer Service looks like and I will not be returning back to this location because of this. read more

I love Homegoods. It's one of my fav stores to wander & search for something fun. They have the best coffee mugs and I love their gourmet food section. Over the holidays tends to be the time I pop in the most. Definitely a good spot to find a gift for someone. read more

We will renovate our house in a good and modern look. First thing we do is we need to renovate our interior design. While workers were painting our wall and changing our tiles we decided to come here. We planned to look for a couch that would be perfect for our living room. Then i found a couch with a color pr black and brown. It was good and it was a soft couch. It has a free table and pillows. But we don't like the table so we decided to look for some tables. We will put the couch table permanently in our room. Then we found a round table. It was perfect on the couch and it was marble. We spent a lot of money on what we purchased. But we're happy because they are of good quality. read more

I love this Home Goods location! I can never stop in without looking at every aisle. They restock multiple times a week, so each time you go, you will ALWAYS see new things. I think it's the reason why it's an addition to many! You'll never get bored of looking at the same things over and over. This location has a great selection of drinking glasses, wine glasses, glass pitchers, crystal and glass bowls, etc. Sometimes you can find hidden gems like Rogaska, Waterford, Mikasa, Vera Wang, Wedgewood, etc. I've found some beautiful pieces! Fitz and Floyd is a brand that has been popping up a lot lately. They always have nice dishes and odds and ends, but if you are looking for large sets of dishes, you may not find them. Plates, bowls and such are sold individually, so you may get lucky to be able to make a set, but you may not. If you love entertaining, you will find unique servers, trays, cake plates, cheese platters and such at great prices. They always have cute mugs too. The selection of pots and pans is not too bad. Sometimes you can find a cast iron Dutch oven for $39.99 and up, which is a great deal. Definitely buy all of your bakeware here. You can't beat their prices on cake, bread and cupcake pans, cooling racks and kitchen tools. All are good brands such as Cuisinart, Nordikware, Kitchenaid, etc. Tools I see here are about half the price they sell for at Target for the same exact items. Lately I've been seeing tons of Le Cruset and All Clad too! Nice selection of table linens - I often see Kim Seybert, which are usually beautiful beaded pieces. The selection of bath towels are usually a hit or miss, as stock moves quickly. If you see a beautiful set, buy them! They most likely won't be there next time. I've purchased most of my towels from here with brands such as Calvin Klein, Tahari, Ralph Lauren and Hotel Collection. I've found some really beautiful hand towels from here. Skip the Cynthia Rowley towels. The quality isn't the best. Comforters are a hit or miss. I often buy bed sheets from here, but the colors/selection is pretty basic. If you want solid, neutral sheets, you'll find them. But you won't find any beautiful patterned sheets. Nice selection of photo frames, wall decor and mirrors. Again, these items can be hit or miss as stock moves FAST and some days there is more than others. Lamp selection is just OK. Furniture selection is OK. I always find nice decorative pillows here that it has become an obsession of mine. They always have a great selection of area rugs. I bought three 8 x 10 rugs for under $400 each and I love them! Staff is always helpful loading large items in my car. Oh! Candles always seem to find their way in my cart too. Don't waste your money on candles any where else other than Home Goods. They are cheaper than anywhere else. I like the soy candles. My only complaint which applies to all Home Goods/TJMaxx and Marshall's stores is how hard they push their credit cards. It has become a big annoyance each time I'm rung up to be alerted about their credit card to the point where it can be uncomfortable. I think they are too over the top. read more

I love homegoods and this location is the closest one to our home. I always find unique and affordable pieces here whether it's home or even baby stuff! I buy most of my son's things in here as I don't like generic and common things for him. The only downside is that there's way too much broken things that they still sell which I find messy and tacky. Other than that, this store has a lot to offer! read more

Homegoods Store - Department Stores Near Me - Algonquin, Illinois

This was my first time visiting Homegoods and I will admit they had TONS of unique and beautiful pieces that would look great in any home. I'd imagine that everyone would be able to find at least a few things of interest to them here! However, I noticed that this store was very messy! Each isle seemed as though items were stuffed on the shelf. There were items on the floor. So many, in fact, that it was difficult to walk through the isles without tripping. I'm not sure if I just came at the wrong time? But it was difficult to find anything specific within the store because it was so crammed and messy. I also noticed that during my time shopping here none of the employees so much as smiled my way. It looked as though they were understaffed. Maybe that's why there was stuff everywhere, the few employees couldn't keep up with everything? I felt bad for them. I will most likely visit this location again and I will update my review as necessary. read more

Homegoods Store - Messy isles made it difficult to look through all of the items. - Department Stores Near Me - Algonquin, Illinois

This place is the ross dress for less of home stuff.. it's just a upscale garage sale. Forget about finding matching dinner bowls or mugs. You find only 1 of anything in there. I'm actually surprised they had a silverware set. I was expecting to find only a fork and 3 scattered spoons with one of the spoons being a teaspoon. read more

You want good home items with low price then this is the store to shop. One drawback is they have limited stock so you might have to buy more from other Homegood stores nearby. Lots of kitchen items, outdoor and indoor decoration, good selection on bathroom and living room items esp carpets. You can sometimes get high end cutlery and crockery so keep revisiting as things disappear quickly! read more

This place is the worst location you could possibly work for. The management is HORRID!!!! I've never felt so degraded by management In my life. On top of it, the assistant manager was too Pansy to ever say anything to your face... so if you ever were performing a job wrong, he'd give you the cold shoulder instead of manning up and just telling you what's wrong so you can work on what needs to be worked on. But nope!! No one was man enough to tell you what was wrong that needed to be corrected. Second off, DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA!!!! if you want to work with a bunch of middle aged women who just talk smack all day on anyone younger than them.. then this is the place for you!! how dare those women talk down on any teenager working, especially someone who is just trying to learn the work world and get out there and started. How belittling! For instance, if you did anything wrong when it came to selling credit cards, GOD FORBID YOU DIDNT MAKE THEM THEIR MONEY!!! You'd be yelled at. Gosh if I could remember the name of this one woman that worked there in 2015 that made me feel like a nuisance for being the only young person there, I would've reported her the second I left that job!!!! She made my mental health level so low, there was some days I didn't even want to be here anymore. BECAUSE OF THIS OLD WOMAN WHO COULDN'T KEEP HER MOUTH SHUT! Pay was terrible! You're constantly yelled at for doing nothing if you literally took a two second break, you were yelled at. Whoever management was in 2015 should've never been allowed to step foot in that building! all the bosses were passive and terrible at management. Don't waste your breath working here! If you want your mental health to deteriorate and your self worth to go down the drain, then apply here! Pay was not worth one bit what I went through. I would never step foot in that location again. They don't deserve another penny from anyone quite frankly. Definitely not me! NEVER EVER GOTO THE ALGONQUIN LOCATION!! Don't even waste your money!!! Go somewhere where you're treated with respect and also while not having their credit cards crammed down your throat! All that mattered at the end of the day was who sold the most credit cards not who was doing a good job and being a nice person.. NEVER GO HERE!!!!! read more

Simply Put; Pier 1 on a Budget.....even a tight one. This store has tons of knick knacks and vases and OMG Big Mirrors galore. This is a store that you would visit to make your house a home . They carry items for many tastes from Contemporary ( My Fave ) to Traditional to Eclectic. The prices are always markdowns. Homegoods is the equivalent of the Home Department at TJ Maxx expanded to an entire store. Have fun and try not to spend too much money in there .......like me- hahaha LOL read more

This store was your typical homegoods store. I feel like the selection of items could've been better. I visited during the holiday season and that might have had something to do with it. I didn't receive any good customer service though. The only associate I spoke to was at the counter and she didn't say anything to me. read more

Super friendly staff! They were engaging, had a fun conversation with them while I was checking out! And in no way was it one of those moments where you feel like "please stop talking to me". Very nice, clean store. read more

I bought a $9.99 spice rack at the Home Goods Rockford location and realized when I got home I was double charged. I returned the rack to the Algonquin location and was told because of the overcharge I had to return the rack to the Rockford location. Rockford is an hour from my home and had I known I couldn't return goods to any Home Goods store I wouldn't have purchased anything out of town. For $9.99 the Algonquin store has lost a good customer (the weekend prior I spent over $200 at the Algonquin location) and I think Home Goods better rethink that policy for marketing considerations. read more

Great store. But sTaff needs to attend customer service training, needs more focus. Staff needs to engage customers better, in regards to assisting. read more

I bought a $400 wood entertainment center from this location. After having it in my home unmoved for 3 months, I noticed a large crack on the top of it where the wood was splitting. I realized the top is not one solid piece and the wood glue was not holding and the piece was literally warping and separating from the rest of the top. Another crack in the front appeared shortly afterwards. We have a cool mist humidifier that may cause the wood to expand and contract, but this never should have happened with such an expensive piece of furniture if it was well made!! I will never buy furniture from any Home Goods again now that I know how cheaply it is actually put together. I did try and explain this to the store manager but he simply told me he could not do anything about it since the return policy is 30 days. It was obvious that he did not care and nothing would be done so now I'm stuck with covering up the huge crack with a table runner to conceal it. I haven't been back to a Home Goods since. read more

The employees at the Home Good Store in Algonquin store was very helpful. We saw a beautiful coffee table which was bought by another customer. The employees was very diligent and help us find another table just like that. This is A ++++++ store and the people are very nice and helpful. This was the weekend right before the holidays and they very busy but still they took the time to call and locate the coffee table for us. We love this coffee table and fits perfect in our family room. read more
